I have never been to an indoor baseball (or football for that matter) game, but it's definitely something I want to do in the near future. I can see the obvious air conditioning and sun blockage benefits.

Oh, I agree it was very nice to be indoors with the air conditioning. I actually quite enjoyed it. During hot games I'll only complain about it, you won't see me going on about playing baseball the "right way" I think indoor stadiums can be done well, but I just don't like the Trop. The Rogers Centre is supposed to be incredible to view a game at. We had nice seats behind home plate and it just didn't feel like a great stadium to be in. I would love to be in right field at Tropicana, seems like the best place to be there.

Another problem is they're not in Tampa...they're in St. Petersburg. It's not like the citizens in Tampa Bay can say, you know, let's go to the ball game today, because they have to drive an hour to get there. The Lightning aren't necessarily having the same issue because the Forum is (appropriately) in Tampa Bay. From what I hear there's plans for a new stadium, so I'll be really interested to see how that turns out. While I see hope for the Rays in terms of attendance, I'm really skeptical about the Marlins. It's not like they're moving closer to home in (I think 2012), they're just upgrading in roughly the same place. I can't imagine they get more people than they do now consistently. Perhaps Oklahoma City or Portland will be getting a 2nd team sometime in the near future... Yeah, I have been there before. It is St. Petersburg, not Tampa Bay. St. Petersburg seems like just an old run down town, Tropicana Field is weird because it just stands out above all the old run down houses on that side of St. Petersburg.

Things will be interesting with Tampa goes to Boston. Has Manny been back to fenway yet? In three games last year: June 18thManny: 1-5, R, 2 SO LAD 6, BOS 10June 19thManny: 2-4, HR, 2 R, RBI LAD 4, BOS 5June 20thManny: 2-3, BB LAD 0, BOS 2Respectable by all accounts. I don't remember what the reception was like, but the point is this won't be his first trip back.

A lot of people from Boston retire to Florida. I don't see why the Idiots should be any different
